[0022] The accompanying drawings of the present disclosure are only intended for illustrative purposes and should not be construed as limiting the present disclosure. In order to better illustrate the following embodiments, some components in the accompanying drawings may be omitted, enlarged or reduced in size and do not represent actual product dimensions of a product. It is understandable to those having ordinary skill in the art that certain well-known structures in the accompanying drawings and their descriptions may be omitted.

[0023] In the drawings, identical or similar features are labelled with the same reference numerals in different embodiments.

[0024] FIG. 1 shows an air purifier according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, including a purifier body 20 and an amusing arrangement 10 provided on the purifier body 20. FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 show a specific structure of the amusing arrangement 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. In this embodiment, at least one hole 13 is formed in the amusing arrangement 10, a driver 30 and an amusing assembly 40 connected with the driver 30 are arranged in the amusing arrangement 10, and the driver 30 drives the amusing assembly 40 to move so as to allow the amusing assembly 40 to extend out of or retract into the hole 13.

[0025] By providing the amusing arrangement 10 on the purifier body 20, the air purifier gains an interactive function with pets, helping to alleviate their anxiety and allowing them to expend excess energy. Particularly, the amusing arrangement 10 is provided with the amusing assembly 40 and the hole 13 associated with the amusing assembly 40. Therefore, when the driver 30 is activated, the amusing assembly 40 may extend out of or retract into the hole 13 at random under the driving of the driver 30, thereby attracting the attention of the pets. This encourages the pets to chase and paw at the amusing assembly 40, adding fun to their daily routine and enhancing the interactivity between the air purifier and the pets, thus achieving multifunctional use with a single device. Meanwhile, by providing an interesting interactive experience, the pet is attracted to actively approach and linger near the air purifier, which increases the chances that pet hair is adsorbed and filtered. This allows the air purifier to clean pet hair in time, reducing accumulation of pet hair, and thus improving the cleaning effect.

[0026] Referring now to FIG. 4, according to a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, the amusing assembly 40 particularly includes a driving arm 41 rotatably connected with the driver 30 and a driven arm 42 rotatably connected with the driving arm 41. In particular, the driver 30 may be a motor. When activated, the motor drives the driving arm 41 to swing, and in turn the driving arm 41 drives the driven arm 42 to swing. Driven by the motor, the driving arm 41 and the driven arm 42 may realize states such as extension in a straight line, angled, or overlapping. As a result, when the driving arm 41 and the driven arm 42 are aligned in a straight or nearly straight line, a free end of the driven arm 42 extends out of the hole 13. Conversely, when the driving arm 41 and the driven arm 42 overlap or form a significant angle, the free end of the driven arm 42 retracts into the hole 13. The attention of the pet is attracted through extending or retracting movement of the driven arm 42.

[0027] According to another more preferred embodiment, in order to reduce the friction caused by the collision between the amusing assembly 40 and other components during movement, at least the driven arm 42 is designed as an elastic arm. The elastic arm may rebound and change its swing direction upon colliding with other components, and meanwhile, the elastic arm may prolong the service life of the product, and also increase the enjoyment for the pets during play. Particularly, the elastic arm may be made of plastic materials. In other implementations, the elastic arm may realize an elastic effect in a way that the driven arm 42 is rotatably connected with the driving arm 41 through a spring.

[0028] In order to better fit playful habits of the pets, the amusing assembly 40 in this embodiment further includes an amusing element 43 arranged at an end of the driven arm 42 away from the driving arm 41. The attention of the pets may be better attracted by arranging the amusing element 43, thus enhancing the interactivity between the air purifier and the pets.

[0029] Preferably, the amusing element 43 may be a feather, a hairball, a ribbon, a bell, or the like.

[0030] In addition, due to susceptibility to wear and tear of the amusing element 43, according to a more preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, the amusing element 43 is detachably connected with the driven arm 42. Such configuration allows the amusing element 43 to be replaced in time when it becomes worn out. In order to realize the detachable mounting of the amusing element 43, preferably, the free end of the driven arm 42 is provided with an insertion opening, the amusing element 43 is provided with an insertion post, so that the amusing element 43 and the driven arm 42 are detachably connected in an insertion mode.

[0031] As shown in FIG. 4, according to a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, a guide block 50 for guiding the movement of the amusing assembly 40 may also be arranged in the amusing arrangement 10. By arranging the guide block 50, a swing angle of the driven arm 42 of the amusing assembly 40 may be limited to a certain extent, which increases the probability that the amusing assembly 40 extends out of the hole 13, thereby better attracting the attention of the pets, and further enhancing the interactivity with the pets.

[0032] More preferably, at least two guide blocks 50 may be provided, two adjacent guide blocks 50 form a guide slot 60, and the hole 3 is preferably arranged corresponding to the guide slot 60. Particularly, in this embodiment, the guide blocks 50 are arranged in a triangular or quasi-triangular shape. In such configuration, the width of the guide slot 60 formed by two adjacent guide blocks 50 gradually narrows in a direction pointing to the hole 13, forming a better guiding effect.

[0033] With regard to the elastic driven arm 42, when being in contact with the guide block 50, it may rebound and change its swing direction, preventing wear caused by rigid collision between the driven arm 42 and the guide block 50, thereby prolonging the overall service life of the amusing arrangement 10.

[0034] According to a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to improve the strength of the driving arm 41 and thus prolong the service life of the amusing assembly 40, the driving arm 41 is provided with reinforcing ribs 411.

[0035] Returning to FIG. 2, a plurality of holes may be preferably formed, which are circumferentially distributed along the periphery of the amusing arrangement 10.

[0036] For a relatively small air purifier, the plurality of holes 13 distributed along the periphery of the amusing arrangement 10 allow the amusing assembly 40 to extend out from all around, which further enhances the interactivity between the air purifier and the pets. For a relatively large air purifier, because the pets have a limited field of vision and the large air purifier may need to be placed against a wall, it may not be required to uniformly distribute holes 13 all around. Instead, at least one hole 13 may be selectively provided only in a certain section of the amusing arrangement 10 associated with the amusing assembly 40.

[0037] In this case, an output shaft of the motor preferably coincides with the center of a circle of the plurality of circumferentially distributed holes 13, and the output shaft of the motor is arranged at the center of a circle surrounded by the plurality of holes 13, so that when the motor is activated, the amusing assembly 40 may smoothly extend out from all around.

[0038] Referring to FIG. 3, according to a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, the amusing arrangement 10 may also be provided with a battery slot 70 electrically connected with the driver 30. With a battery installed in the battery slot 70, the driver 30 is powered without plugged in a power cord, so that the air purifier is allowed to be placed freely according to actual usage needs. Moreover, because the battery slot 70 of the amusing arrangement 10 can come with its own power supply, the amusing arrangement 10 may serve as an independent accessory for the air purifier. For example, when used as a base of the air purifier, the amusing arrangement 10 may be powered by an independent power supply, and may also be detached and used alone.

[0039] According to the present disclosure, the amusing arrangement 10 may be arranged at the bottom of the purifier body 20, as shown in FIG. 1, or may be arranged at the top of the purifier body 20, as shown in FIG. 6.
